Don’t Fall For the Mainstream Media’s “Polling” on Immigration
Posted by Spencer Raley | Apr 27, 2017
This past week, an ABC News/Washington Post survey revealed that, if the election took place again today, Donald Trump would still win, and possibly by a wider margin. Many in the mainstream media, including ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, expressed disbelief by these results. But it shouldn’t take them by surprise. If members of the media are truly surprised, it’s because they are deceived by the biased language of many polls.
Polling on immigration exemplifies an inherent bias that produces skewed results. Over the past few weeks, media outlets have touted the idea that Trump’s immigration policies counter the will of the people because “support for immigration is at an all-time high.” The Wall Street Journal went so far as to conclude that their latest poll on immigration “suggests backlash to Trump administration policies.” A number of other news agencies are also quick to note that their polls apparently signal opposition to Trump’s policies.
